| Hi HN I built Video Forms: a tool that lets you attach questions to specific timestamps in a video, optionally with branching/skip logic. Motivation: I kept getting “looks good” feedback on demo/onboarding videos, but the useful feedback was always “at 0:42 I got confused” — and it was hard to collect that in a structured way. Surveys lose context; comments are unstructured. How it works (high level):
- You create a “video form” by placing questions at timestamps (e.g., 0:18, 0:42)
- The video can pause to ask the question, then continue
- Answers can branch to different follow-up questions based on responses
- You get responses tied to the exact moment in the video (and can export/share results) Use cases I’m aiming at:
- UX research on product demos
- Onboarding: “did this step make sense?” checks
- Training/L&D comprehension checks I’d love feedback on:
1) What question types would you need first (free text, multiple choice, rating, etc.)?
2) Is “interrupting” the video a deal-breaker, or does pausing at key moments feel acceptable?
3) Any workflows/tools you’d want this to integrate with? |
